1The chief executive officer of SE Health, a national social enterprise bringing excellence and innovation to homecare, seniors living and family caregiving. She is a member of the Premier's Council on Improving Healthcare and Ending Hallway Medicine, and serves on numerous boards including the CD Howe Institute and University Health Network.
Abstract:
In 2018, SE Health (formerly Saint Elizabeth Health Care) delivered care and support to more than 500,000 people when and where they needed it. We delivered many of these health services to Canadians in their own homes, supporting independent living and freeing up hospital beds for acute care needs. As care in one's home becomes more commonplace, it is critical that Canadians know they are safe.
